WW LXXIX: Fall From Olympus - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Shastanis Althreduin · 08-03-2010, 06:56 PM

So my laptop fell off my bed while I was getting a drink of water and unplugged. Shasta no happy.

Analysis of Lalaith, the short version - aka What I Can Remember:

Is it just me, or is there an interesting Lalaith/Kath vibe today? First Kath leaves something that could be construed as a blatant Cursed-hint, and now Lal seems all for lynching her? After not going after Kath at all previously? I'm beginning to think one's a wolf and one's the cursed (if Eonwe wasn't). Trouble is, I'm not sure which is which. I think I'd be fine with lynching either one, though.

Huh? Wouldn't a wolf be against lynching the possible Cursed?

As opposed to lynching a Wolf? If we're lynching the cursed, we're not lynching a wolf, and if we're pretty sure we know who the cursed is it's not in the wolves's best interest to go for them at Night since we'd just lynch them the following Day, so... why not use them as lynch fodder?

I have enhanced weapons skills. Anyone care to see a demonstration?

The Brit goes first.

So... Who else is left to vote?

Glirdan · 08-03-2010, 11:55 PM

You, Mira and Nerwen, both of which seem to be MIA

the phantom · 08-03-2010, 11:58 PM

Nerwen, m'dear? Which way are you voting?

Nerwen · 08-03-2010, 11:58 PM

ARRGH! Long post about Kath got eaten!

So, briefly:

I don't like the look of her, at all, but on the other hand, I don't particularly care for the members of her lynching party either. (Yeah, that incudes you Sally– who's to say your hints weren't one big bluff?)

And, then, no-one seems to be trying to save her, which isn't a great sign– though there's only two wolves left, it's true...

Glirdan · 08-04-2010, 12:01 AM

That's time people.

NOTE BEFORE READING: This Narration is mainly for the enjoyment of Kath, Wilwa and myself due to an....well, shall we say rather interesting Freudian Slip on my part

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Gods gathered at the end of the Day for another trying debate on what to do next. Suddenly, they all noticed Hestia sitting in a corner, rocking back and forth...back....and forth.............back...........and forth............................................. ...................When suddenly, she jumped up screaming in a terrible fright and started running around the room in a panic, looking for an exit. She finally found the caved in archway out of the Great Chamber and fled, all the down Mount Olympus and to the sea, where she saw a little rowing boat drifting on the shore.

She ran to it, heedless of the ice cold (and strangely colored) water around her. She hopped in the boat and began rowing out to sea, in an attempt to get away from Olympus, and the insanity that the place had brought to her. She couldn't take the visions like Apollo could. She was being driven mad by them.

She continued to row, and row. It wasn't until she was far out to sea that she finally started to slow down. She laid back and just stared up at the sky......

Hestia awoke with a start, frozen to the bone. She sat up and looked around her and noticed that the sea had completely frozen over. She reached over and touched the surface and drew it back in shock. The sea wasn't just frozen, but was frozen into a milky like substance...like ice cream. She started to clamber out, suddenly quite hungry and started scooping up handfuls of the sea, when she glanced quickly at the side of the boat and noticed the tiny print on the side that was the boat's name: TITANIC. And that's when it hit. A giant ball of ice cream landed right on top of her and The Titanic.

----------------------------------------------------------
BACK ON OLYMPUS

Everyone was gathered around Hestia who was asleep in a corner and pale as death (albeit, Thanatos and Hades are no that pale) and blue lips. Pan reached over and touched her and withdrew his hand quickly, already cold. She was already dead and there was nothing they could do about it.

Arrgh! I know I've missed DL.

No, it's not any kind of ploy. Sorry, my connection just started running so slow that the page is taking minutes to load each time. Just so you know, I'd decided to vote Kath after all.

Glirdan · 08-04-2010, 11:56 PM

Pan was out patrolling the halls once again, hoping that like Eros, he would have the chance to step in and save someone. He hadn't seen any action yet and was hoping that it was coming his way soon. Pan rounded the next bend in the hall, sword in hand, ready to pounce if it was necessary. Yet Pan was always a clumsy fool, to the point where he had tripped over a pebble, once upon a time.

He continued to make his way down the hall when he heard something behind him. He stopped and listened. There was something slithering behind him. He held his sword firmly and turned around, swinging his sword....at thin air. In his excitement, he kept swinging and swinging, at nothing, eyes shut tight, backing up the whole time until he slipped on a pebble, fell back and landed on the floor, his sword flying into the air before plummeting back down and landing....right in Pan's gut.

--------------------------------------------------
THE NEXT DAY

As the Gods were emerging from their chambers, they all noticed Pan lying in the middle of the hallway with his sword sticking out of his gut. All of them thought it was the work of the traitors. Yet the traitors sat their snickering to themselves, for they WERE there when Pan had died.
